What have you people invited me to come here for? promptly asked lady Feng; if you have anything to present me with, hand it to me at once, for Ive other things to attend to.
Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Chin had barely any time to exchange any further remarks, when several matrons interposed, smilingly: Had our lady not come to-day, there would have been no help for it, but having come, you cant have it all your own way.
While they were conversing about one thing and another, they caught sight of Chia Jung come in to pay his respects, which prompted Pao-yue to inquire, Isnt my elder brother at home to-day?
Hes gone out of town to-day, replied Mrs. Yu, to inquire after his grandfather. Youll find sitting here, she continued, very dull, and why not go out and have a stroll?
A strange coincidence has taken place to-day, urged Mrs. Chin, with a smile; some time back you, uncle Pao, expressed a wish to see my brother, and to-day he too happens to be here at home. I think hes in the library; but why not go and see for yourself, uncle Pao?
Pao-yue descended at once from the stove-couch, and was about to go, when Mrs. Yu bade the servants to mind and go with him. Dont you let him get into trouble, she enjoined. Its a far different thing when he comes over under the charge of his grandmother, when hes all right.
If that be so, remarked lady Feng, why not ask the young gentleman to come in, and then I too can see him. There isnt, I hope, any objection to my seeing him?
